Madhya Pradesh all-rounder Venkatesh Iyer credited state coach Chandrakant Pandit for his maiden India call-up in the team for the T20I series against New Zealand. Iyer, 26, scored 370 in 10 games while opening the innings for Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL-14.

‘Credit to my parents, coaches’

“All credit should go to my parents, my family and all the coaches especially my childhood coach Dinesh Sharma sir, Chandu Pandit sir, who groomed me and also Amay Khurasiya sir [former India batsman], who played a crucial role. He [Pandit] is very proactive and a great tactician. His involvement with MP Cricket Association has helped us to hone our skills better. It’s been a wonderful journey with him and I hope it continues,” Iyer remarked.
